Gase Was Going To Fire Burke & Move On From Tannehill But Ross Didn't Want To Win?

I can’t take Ross Serioulsy watching him. He looks and sounds totally lost and out of his element when it comes to sports. I wonder if he was even a football fan or just wanted to own a sports franchise? Holding his head in his hand in the team box says it all. If the leader of your organization does not show confidence who will.

I work in the Finance industry and one year my old company thought it was a good idea to go grab the CEO of Schwinn Bicycles to head our organization. The guy was totally lost, didn’t have the experience to understand the market or investors and reacted to rumor rather than relying on his first hand knowledge of the industry to make decisions. Our once progressive up and coming company quickly became the place to avoid. Maybe they should have realized Schwinn was worse off for having this guy.

Grier is our Schwinn, he was supposed to change the culture and be they guy to bring stability to the organization. He’s in over his head and wants to rebuild the mess he was a part of creating? Good grief, Ross has no clue and just doomed this franchise until he passes away or sells. I am wondering if he is self made or if he is a product of Daddy’s money like so many of these wealthy guys are. I mean seriously he wanted Jim Harbaugh bad and now because he’s at Michigan he doesn’t want to take him from his alma-mater? Are you kidding me? I don’t want him either but if you think he’s the guy why would you put your school over your investment?

WTF? Who acts like this with their boss? Be a professional.

On a side note, I really hate Salguero's writing style. He writes like an entitled douche in a livejournal blog...

It's like a dunk contest between Larry Bird and Dirk Nowitzki, bue I'll take Omar over Armando any day.

If he'd fired Burke during the bye week, or most any other week, then I might believe him. He didn't. Actions speak louder than words.

Maybe he felt there wasnt an upgrade on that staff which the way the defense played at times I would agree

The biggest mistake a leader can make is to surround himself with a bunch of yes men or less talented men. It inherently creates a follower culture vs a leader culture. That’s the mistake Ross made numerous times now. My read on Ross from the PC the other day is a man who has finally accepted his failures. He’s so used to having people tell him how smart he is and he finally admitted that under his leadership the team is no closer to winning a championship then the day he bought the team. Takes a big man to humble yourself and admit that. I’m not in agreement with you on Grier for one reason. No one really knows how many cooks there were in the kitchen meddling in the draft and free agency, so how can we blame Grier? My guess it was numerous people, including the owner meddling in the personnel dept. Fact is our last draft was very good and filled a lot of needs. Now we finally have ONE voice who will be accountable for personnel decisions and the owner and other voices are checking out. This is something new to the Miami Dolphins and the formula most successful franchises use. Let’s give Grier an opportunity to build the team the right way. JMHO
 
Gasy got fired because people realized that he is no guru. He is a ****ing bum and needs to go coach powderpuff.

This article was very insightful. I can’t say I’m surprised about Ross wanting to talk to Gase and Gase ignoring it to his own detriment. For years now we have been calling Gase a stubborn know it all who thinks himself a guru, and Ross a meddler who doesn’t really know what he is doing. THAT is an explosive combination.

You read between the lines...Grier was in Ross’ ear and may have gotten Gase fired as a result. Power move behind the scenes.

For all of the posters wanting a rebuild but annoyed at the Grier promotion, please realize it sounds like we got a rebuild BECAUSE of Grier. You can’t look at each of those things in a vacuum.

Honestly I have no idea if this will all work out, but the team rebuilding the proper way I personally have been wanting for years. Suck or be great, but don’t be in the no man’s land in the middle.

I agree with your comments. I cannot say for sure but I’d bet Grier was being overruled and hamstrung by all the people meddling in the personnel dept including the damn owner. Now we have ONE voice which is the proper way to do it. Hope Grier is up to the task
 
the problem I had about Gase was his offense was not good. he did not have no plan for future w them sorry qb. he was bring in behind thill17. defense was over work. I cannot blame all on defense coach. we just didn't score point
 
It doesn't matter how well he does or doesn't do elsewhere. The bottom line is he wasn't working out in Miami and he had to go.
 
If Stephen Ross approached Gase about getting Guards, then Ross knows more about football than I thought. And if that is indeed the case, why didn't Tannenbaum and Gase go all out to land younger quality Guards? It wouldn't have broken the bank.

Didn't read all the responses here but in short, there was no way Gase could remain here....not after blowing off Ross and, at one point according to the Armando story, YELLING at Ross over something that sent Gase off.

No F'ing way does this arrogant, egotistical douchebag deserve a job here after that. In fact, if I were Ross I would have fired him when he told me "not now!" after the Colts game when Ross wanted to speak to him . Dude's a moody, spoiled scumbag loser.....good riddance.

I agree the guy is a total loser and a *****. He is the type to start a fight and not talk to you for years or call the cops when he's the one who started it, I would have give him one blow-up allowed and then after that I'd let him know if he ever talked to me like that again that I'd make sure he would never coach again, there isn't room for this guy ANYWHERE, a dumb twit will sign him thinking they struck gold and then in return he will literally run the ball on 4 and 24 with the fallout synth look on his face.

I mentioned at a couple points that my one misgiving with Gase is that what he was doing was eerily similar to what Chip Kelly did with the Eagles - basically insist that everything had to go his way, got rid of players he didn't like, and refused to learn from his mistakes. I didn't think Gase was enough of a stubborn A-hole to go down in flames like Kelly did.

I was wrong. That's exactly what he did.

Perfect answer, what an idiot

I'm just being honest here: I am extremely skeptical of the report that Steve Ross approached Adam Gase and told him to consider bringing in better guards, and that Gase then started shouting at him.

You could not manufacture a more sympathetic story for ownership to sell after firing the coach.
 
The bottom line is Gase over promised and under delivered. What he was supposed to be good at he wasn’t. Ross fell for it again. Now we have one voice and hopefully Grier makes the right call and doesn’t hire an offensive or defensive guru but a leader. It better be someone with NFL head coaching experience or we will be wash-rinse-repeat in 3 years

I want to believe it though it’s likely Ross doesn’t know what a Guard is.
